After much paranoia and suspicion, I have come around FULLY 0n the Nintendo Switch.
A console with multiple functionalities? It didn’t sound possible–at first. Then, I bought one for myself… The game has changed, ladies and gentleman.
It’s Good to Be Different
When Nintendo announced the portability aspect of the Switch, I thought, ‘yeah, nobody needs that, I need soup though. Nobody needs a console that is portable but could be stationary if you so desired.’ Fast forward to me about 2 weeks ago in the Best Buy checkout line with the Switch in the crook of my arm, then go further into the future with me playing the Switch everyday. The uniques of the system is something I love and consider a welcome bonus.
Let me break it down, there is something truly amazing about taking the game and system on the run after having just been playing them on your at-home entertainment system moments before. The fact that it’s different from other consoles is also just exciting in itself. Basically, the Switch is a strange boi, like me.
Lifestyle Fit
I do play a hella ton of v games–but if you ask me, I could play more. How can I even do that, I ask myself? Buy the system with AAA game capabilities and multi-personality disorder, of course. This way I won’t have any problems playing at my house or out-and-about. It’s magic firing up “The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild,” which has the best sounds effects in the bizz, on the run!
Picking Up Where the 3DS Left Off
The Switch does more than what Nintendo’s 3DS ever could. Don’t get me wrong, the last gen, handheld-only system is great, loaded with classic titles. But there is something more accepting about a system that isn’t truly portable. That’s where the Switch comes in, introducing skeptical players to the portable experience.
I’m really into the system right now! I’ll keep everyone updated! Let me know if the Nintendo Switch brings you the same sort of joy!
